  • Patent number: 11427993
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a cartridge for an electronic tap having a handle or controller with an extended operative range of motion, which allows moving said handle or controller beyond its normal range of motion determined by a first stop, providing in said extended areas additional functionalities using a control system that determines the position of the handle in order to associate to said position a flow value, a fluid mixing ratio value, and/or an additional functionality. The invention also relates to the tap including said cartridge with a handle having an extended operative range of motion and to the operation method thereof.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20220154436
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electronic tap cartridge which includes a magnetic sensor on the three Cartesian axes for the detection of the position of the controller or handle, by measuring on the said three Cartesian axes the magnetic field generated by a magnet-type element attached to the turning and rotating movement of the controller and handle, determining in an electronic way the regulation set by the user with the movement of the controller or handle, transmitting it to the corresponding devices that perform the mixing and regulate the flow of supply, the invention also referring to the tap containing said cartridge with the magnetic triaxial sensor.

  • Patent number: 11221086
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a tap cartridge that includes a routing of a cable that may transmit data and/or supply electricity, for a tap handle or lever with electronic functions, and which also relates to the tap containing said cartridge with the routing system, wherein the configuration of a parameter of the fluid supplied is performed by rotation of said handle or lever, all thanks to a positioning through the inner cartridge and of an extra accumulation of cable in a space of the cartridge prior to the connection of the lever.

  • Patent number: 11040318
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a liquid mixing device which has a control system and electronic regulation, in charge of receiving the parameters set with respect to the liquid which is expected to be supplied by the tap or supply means whereto said device is connected and which acts on the regulation means of the different supply lines of liquids to mix to achieve said parameters, which has a high measurement and actuation dynamic thanks to measuring sections with ultrasonic transducers and proportional solenoid valves and a configuration and geometry of said measuring sections which allows having a multitude of reliable measurements per second.

  • Publication number: 20190186114
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a faucet with electronic control wherein there is manual flow regulation means of the faucet liquid inlets, whereto solenoid valves are added in series which also allow the shut-off of liquid, where said solenoid valves are governed by control means, whereto is also connected a sensor system which discriminates the user's interactions both on the regulation means, and on the other main parts of the faucet body, said control system acting on the solenoid valves according to said user's interaction on one and another area of the faucet with independent associated sensor system.
